Top Paleontological Museum Hotel Reviews

Nautilux Rethymno by Mage Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"A great place for a holiday. Very good facilities. Spacious and clean. A relaxing place to stay. Breakfast was excellent The wet weather posed a few challenges but that was out of the control of the Nautilax. Just made for a chilly few days."

Astali Hotel

8/10 Good

"The single occupant room was quite small but it had a comfortable mattress. There was daily housekeeping and a good breakfast. Hotel policy is to leave your room key at the front desk each time you exit the hotel."

Aquila Porto Rethymno

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay, Great location, highly recommend. Nice clean room with great sea views, staff very friendly and attentive. Breakfast was good with so much choice. Good evening entertainment with live music good spa, had a relaxing massage. Two nice swimming pools and surrounding areas. Relaxing vibe would return to the hotel if visiting Crete again."

Hotel Ideon

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible location, right by everything in the old town. The room, and rest of the hotel, was always spotless clean. Staff were wonderful."

Bio Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was amazing"

Omma Suites

8/10 Good

"The pictures on the website make this hotel looks spectacular. The room I had did have a hot tub, but it was inside the room. That made it very difficult to take a shower, and actually filling the hot tub would take about an hour, so I never had time to do it. It also uses up a huge amount of space in the room. Check in on the weekend involves being emailed a code as you arrive and a tall staircase not friendly to having large luggage and one person with a bad back. The people who run the property are extremely nice, and the location is very good. The cleaning is excellent, except that twice they left me a sheet and a blanket folded up not put on the bed. There was also an issue with a sticky switch to flush the toilet that was not fixed while I was there. Overall, this is a luxury property, but the way that it is arranged and managed (strange bed making, sticky switch, big staircase with no one to ) makes it four stars rather than five."

Civitas Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice staff. Nice decorations"

Menta City Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"La chambre était parfait mais pas de place de stationnement près gratuit cela est un peu désagréable"

Achillion Palace Hotel Rethymno City Center

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely traditional hotel with a great location near the beach. The roof top pool was amazing with a nice little bar area for drinks and snacks. All the staff were so polite and friendly."
